B4J Tutorial Installing JavaFX on Raspberry Pi and run GUI apps (Sept 2017)

Hello

There has been a few tutorial & posts about this already, but most of them are outdated or buried somewhere. I found an updated tutorial which explains very well the steps for installing and running JavaFX applications on Raspberry pi:

(See "Installation of Java" & "Installation of JavaFX")
https://wimdeblauwe.wordpress.com/2017/08/26/using-javafx-on-raspberry-pi-3-with-gluon/

They use Gluon JavaFX Embedded SDK to run JavaFX GUI apps. Many thanks to Wim Deblauwe for writing this complete tutorial.

Best,
Jmon

Hi, Could I use Gluon JavaFX Embedded SDK to run B4J GUI apps in the raspberry pi?

 

[jmon]

Yes that's the idea. B4J uses JavaFX to run GUI apps.

Has anyone tried this on a Pi zero W?

Does this work with B4J on Raspberry Pi 4?

Have you tried this: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/raspberry-pi-with-java-11.99606/ ?

 

[Uitenhage]

Yes. I can run the Traffic Light example: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/iot-traffic-light-with-raspberry-pi.57889/ but I can't get even "Hello World" to run.

You should start a new thread and provide all relevant information.
